Manheim is joining the cast as the LAPD’s Deputy Chief of Operations after the recent, shocking death of character Russell Taylor (Robert Gossett). Manheim’s character is reportedly being considered as a replacement for Taylor, who served as Assistant Chief of Special Operations.

Manheim will make her debut on Major Crimes in episode 14, which airs later this month.

Would have preferred Fritz….he doesn’t get enough time and has been on since The Closer. Love this show and the other characters will keep me coming back no matter who replaces Taylor, whom I will miss. Please renew for more……..

Not Caryn wouldn’t be a good fit for this amazing show. Fritz Howard should fill that role. He has been on the show for a long time and doesn’t get enough screen time. This role would be perfect for him.

Great show. This season is one of their best if not their best. Brilliant story lines for the opening 5 part story line to this 3 part story line. Mary Mcdonnell is fierce and the cast is top notch, good writing and directing make this one of the very best shows on TV. Not sure about Camryn, but she’s been solid in the shows I’ve seen her in (last was the wonderful PERSON OF INTEREST).
